Thanks chanmr. Here is a link; one of the posted pictures on the site:

well, L-tower is more like "italic" while Aura is more like "impact" :)

Maybe it was a reference to a "narrow waist", which is one of the reasons the Absolute tower got its Marilyn nickname.

I remember looking at different projects in terms of time it takes to reach ground level from the date of mounting a crane: it usually takes between 6-9 months. So, if crane is there late this year, I would expect them to reach ground late summer or early fall of 2013.

The west part is at grade now: East (from Yonge and Park Home):

A week later another floor added to the south tower: Some signs of cladding visible on south part of podium:

Interesting story. Personally, i would like to see a transparent incremental bidding, the way they do it on Ebay.

Thanks for noticing, this is what I meant to say! --- the east side might be delayed due to subway work and the west side will go up faster...

Good updates and pictures (even though they are a couple of weeks old), thanks for sharing. The blog is stating that "The west side will be at grade in August while the east side will be at grade in the Fall." Today they are working on the level-3 parking, west side and on level 1 parking, east...

Not built yet, but soon to be started. Some info I received from Grenville Residence Inc today: From another email:

Still working on the first level of parking, but it is almost done:

The south tower is growing fast; they are working on the fifth floor. For some reason, the north tower is almost halted; I understand the subway connection slows down the progress (west part), but I am not sure why the north-east part of the building is so slow.

The pace slowed down a bit:

Daily Commercial News posted a nice picture in today's edition:

Finally, an update from TYSSE site: Considering that Holey and Moley will start the Sheppard W - Downsview tunneling soon, they should be done boring some time next summer. At the same time, Yorkie and Torkie will complete the Steeles West -- Keele-Finch stretch. Now, why not to place all...

Thanks for correction; I forgot about 407 launch site. Agreed--Vaughan to Steeles (or vice versa) in one swap would make more sense; maybe it has to do with some technical issues related to moving TBMs through the launch shaft. About York--do you know where they "stuck" exactly? I remember some...

The Spadina Line construction site is not updated often and it is quite outdated by now. For Holey and Moley, the tunnel boring goes from Sheppard West to Keele & Finch (completed) and then from Sheppard West south to Downsview. For Torkie and Yorkie, they dig from Steeles to Keele and Finch (I...

Good progress on the south tower:

Looks like excavation is almost done:
